If you're a hack n slash fan, you'll find that this game does it well. It improves on some of the shortcomings of the Dynasty Warriors/Samurai Warriors series and ramps up the action to bring KOs into the thousands. The ability to run (ie get across the map without needing a horse) is critical, as are the selections of secondary weapons, big bosses, and various unlockables/side-quests. This game will keep you as busy as any of the classic DWs without the feeling that you're grinding your life away. Taking the story from ancient China/Japan to Hyrule is the biggest drawback: seeing Zelda characters meet each other in such strange ways pales in comparison to the Romance of the Three Kingdoms and you never really care about what's actually going on during the battle. Still, the game mechanics keep you more than involved. Loving it!Read full review

I really love this game, it is one of my favorites on the console. The battles are compelling and visually stunning. The whole combat system gets addictive and it almost feels stress relieving to just slash through enemies with link. The character line up is very well. You can even play as Windwaker characters and Shiek ect... All and all i would say this game is perfect for all gamers and kids alike. It's fun, colorful, unique and a perfect blend of two legenary franchises.

I love Zelda games so this was a must have. Graphics are really good and gameplay is fun. It's a typical hash 'n' slash style game. It's basically Dynasty Warriors with a Zelda theme. This isn't a bad thing though. If you've played Zelda games, you'll easily recognize the familiar locations, enemies and the playable characters. I'm super excited to have been able to get this game at such a great price and a big Thank You to the seller!

Packed with content and extremely fun to play, Hyrule Warriors is a worthy entry into the Zelda AND Warriors franchises. It has all of the memorable characters and locations of Zelda with all of the mindless, minion-slaughtering action of Dynasty Warriors. The story is passable, though not remarkable. What really makes this game worthwhile is the truly enormous amount of extra content. While there are already plenty of characters to choose from, most of those characters have several weapon types, each with completely unique movesets, so in a sense there's double the amount of characters that it initially seems like there are. Weapons are customizable with numerous ability slots, all of which which can be mixed and matched for special bonuses and attributes. In a world where $60 games often last for only 8 hours or so, Hyrule Warriors is a total bargain at any price. Its content is rich and varied and keeps a dedicated player occupied for dozens, possibly hundreds of hours. All of the series favorites are here and playable: Zelda, Link, Sheik, Impa, Midna, Ruto, Ganondorf, and more. There are even a few original characters with enjoyable movesets, as well. Some might say that the gameplay gets too repetitive after a few hours, but if you're the kind of person who absolutely loves the Dynasty Warriors formula of battling thousands of enemies in a huge battlefield with objective-based gameplay and tons of unlockable weapons, then there is a lot to love here. Perfectionists will play above and beyond the call of duty in order to get a perfect weapon of every type for each character, and even those of us who aren't so inclined will find plenty of enjoyment from the extra modes. Hyrule Warriors ranks up with Smash Bros. and Donkey King: Tropical Freeze as a must-own game for the Wii U. If you can find it, buy it.Read full review
Tons of fun with the 2 player co-op although it's a bit difficult to turn on. Oddly, after having played other Dynasty Warriors games, this game still felt fresh with just a new skin. Despite its repetitiveness at times, tearing through bad guys is super fun and the upgrading and crafting system give the game replay ability. Adventure mode means a varied challenge every time and DLC is still being released. Recommended buy!
